"Due to a clear night sky, the minimum temperatures have dropped across Jammu and Kashmir. The weather is expected to remain cold and dry during the next three days, but maximum temperatures will improve during this period," a MET Department official said.

The minimum temperature was minus 5.7 degrees Celsius in Srinagar on Saturday, while in Pahalgam and Gulmarg it was minus 12.7 and minus 14.4, respectively.
